Carabus monilifer is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae. It is found in China, North and South Korea, and Russia.[1][2][3]
Description
Carabus monilifer can reach a length of about 30–45 millimetres (1.2–1.8 in). The body is slender and the surface is metallic (varying from green or reddish coppery), depending on subspecies. The elytra are broad, robust and longitudinally covered with rows of small raised nodules. Adults can be found from May through September. They are predators of other invertebrates, particularly insects, but may eat others such as earthworms.
Distribution
This species can be found in southern Russian Far East, North and South Korea, and in China; from Inner Mongolia to Jilin and Henan to the east and Shanxi to the west.[3]
